A friend of mine runs a charity and he said that they need an act to fill up a 1 hour slot this Saturday. He asked me if I would consider doing a 1 hour drum solo. I told him that I already know that the general public won't go for it, however if I could get my good friend with his congas or DJEMBE I might consider trying to fill up 1 hour with something that the public WILL LIKE. (small farming town so we'll see) So my friend said ok. So I'm playing pure percussion Saturday afternoon in a band shell with Thundershowers and 87degrees forecast!
Now I find out that this "charity" venue is much larger than I expected with thousands visitors each year and a Bongo player has also signed up, so we'll be a percussion TRIO. I'll try to videotape this.
Anyone here have any experience with pure percussion or drum circle type things? I'm working out ideas this week and jotting them down. I even have something in mind for audience participation.
